Attn Cerberus

Post by DavidS »

Amazing coincident. I just finished commenting on your remarks regarding people trying to spoil rural lifestyles and went into google to do some research on the Scharnhorst. I had no idea until then that the operation between 11th and 13th February, 1942, where Scharnhorst, Gneisenau and Prinz Eugen sailed through the Straits of Dover was called Operation Cerberus!

Cerberus was a vicious beast that guarded the entrance to Hades and kept the living from entering the world of the dead.
...........A monster not to be overcome and that may not be described, Cerberus who eats raw flesh, the brazen-voiced hound of Hades, fifty-headed, relentless and strong.
Hesiod, Theogony 310
